The hotel is categorized under 'Places of Interest' (POI) within the hotels section.
Starting from the mini roundabout at the town's outskirts, follow the A3082 road with signs pointing towards Fowey. At the second mini-roundabout, take the initial exit, and then do the same at the third mini-roundabout. Continue along the road as it descends until you encounter a right-hand bend indicating Fowey and the Main Car Park. Take a left turn at this bend, leading you onto Lostwithiel Street. Follow this route through town, passing the church and continuing along Fore Street. The Old Quay House will be situated on your right side.
